How do I get voice working?

  • Install FFMPEG.
  • Install either the @discordjs/opus package or the opusscript package. @discordjs/opus is greatly preferred, due to it having significantly better performance.

How do I install FFMPEG?

  • npm: npm install ffmpeg-binaries
  • Ubuntu 16.04: sudo apt install ffmpeg
  • Ubuntu 14.04: sudo apt-get install libav-tools
  • Windows: npm install ffmpeg-binaries or see the FFMPEG section of AoDude's guide.

How do I set up @discordjs/opus?

  • Ubuntu: Simply run npm install @discordjs/opus, and it's done. Congrats!
  • Windows: Run npm install --global --production windows-build-tools in an admin command prompt or PowerShell. Then, running npm install @discordjs/opus in your bot's directory should successfully build it. Woo!
